It's plain and simple. You don't need Jesus to save you because there is nothing to save you from.
Look, that is an incredibly wonderful thing to say and we all respect the amazing debating prowess you are displaying.
However, he is asking that question in the context of Christian Mythology. Thus the answer he is looking for is the answer Christian Mythology provides.
Imagine discussing the Roman Gods, if a question was "Who was the Chief of the Roman Gods" and you answered there wasn't one cause they were all fake, you would fail.

I'm sorry, where did that come from?

Haha, what are you looking for exactly?
Iron Chariots. . . the idea that God would come to earth, take physical form and sacrifice himself, to himself, as a loophole for laws he created, in order to save us from his wrath . . . is patently absurd.

I don't want his love. I just want the bastards word of honor that he'll not let me get tortured after this life, especially not since he created me, especially since he created me with this immense ability to feel pain. I'd find it nice if he'd reserve me a nice spot in his place of happiness, but I get he wants some worship as payment, so I'd settle for taking away my existence altogether...
